English-Speaking Counsellor & Psychotherapist in Dakar
Supporting Expats, Through Life’s Challenges
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. Stress, anxiety, relationships, work, or major life changes can leave you feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure of what to do next.
I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and find ways forward that feel right for you.
Whether you’re living in Dakar or elsewhere in the world, you don’t have to navigate difficult periods alone.

About Me
I’m Elizabeth, a UK-trained Counsellor and Psychotherapist with over 11 years of experience in private practice.
I work with adults experiencing a range of personal and emotional challenges, including stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, loss, and periods of significant change.
My approach is compassionate, practical and collaborative. I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable being yourself, without judgement, while having the support and guidance to better understand yourself and make meaningful changes.
I offer in-person sessions in Dakar and online counselling for clients internationally.

My Approach
I work collaboratively with each client, taking the time to understand your individual circumstances, experiences and goals.

My approach is compassionate, respectful and practical. Together, we can work towards greater clarity, emotional wellbeing and confidence.
